You are right.  I moved the docs of both variables out of the
surrounding table, leaving a cross-reference to them in the table.

The reference sections, such as `--Variable:', should follow the same
indentation throughout the manual.  In  (elisp) Special Properties, the
two `--Variable:' sections are indented too far; they should be indented
to only column 1, as in the rest of the manual.
 
IOW, we should see:
 
 -- Variable: inhibit-point-motion-hooks
 
not:
 
      -- Variable: inhibit-point-motion-hooks
